Sustainable Computing
I spend a lot of time staring at monitor screens.
I test software for a living, which means I deal with all kinds of ‘Computer related’ issues.
PCs consume an inordinate amount of energy. But we need them! So how do we use our technology sustainably?
Not leaving machines on over night (even over weekends…) can help cut […] -

Be Careful What you wish for…
So Labour got a hiding in Henley.
And David Cameron has another acolyte elected .
I do understand why people might want to get rid of Labour and / or Gordon Brown. The Labour party has not prepared for the lean times we now face despite 10 years of record growth. We are heading for a steep […] -

Catch the Pigeon!
The little blighters are at it again… relieving themselves in the street…
I am referring to Stroud’s perennial “Pigeon Problem” … The creatures in question lurk under the railway bridge and mess up the walkway.
I have had a few complaints about this issue. Do not fear this Town Councillor is on the case! (Polite suggestions of […] -

A ‘green’ carrot?…
Lib Dems want to be upbeat and positive where possible
Nick Clegg has spoken on the subject of encouraging green businesses. Rather than just taxing bad behaviour which pollutes our environment why not use the powers we have to make it attractive to ‘green’ the workspace.
I believe that the only way to ’save the planet’ (aka […] -
Number 37 Bus, Fisk's Mutterings
Somewhere to sit down…
Residents of Stroud have commented that it would be nice to have more places to sit while waiting for the Number 37 bus…
Just a quick note to say I’m on the case and currently investigating where additional seating could be sited. (Opposite the Pop up loo… hmm?)
Keep the ideas flowing… -
Canal, Fisk's Mutterings, News
A £2.3 Million hole in the ground…
Are a chance in a life time?
I am talking about the Stroud Canal Project of course, and the answer to the question depends on who you talk too.
I am concerned that the project may be rushed through leaving key elements of the community ‘Out of the Loop’
Local Traders have voted with their feet and left […] -
Europe, Fisk's Mutterings
No to a “Quick Fix”
So the Irish have voted no to the Treaty of Lisbon.
And already the European Commission President has tried to ignore the referendum result.
Shame on him…
We live in the European Union not the Soviet Union
Don’t get me wrong on this. I am a dedicated Pro-European. I always have been and I always will be. I believe […] -

Dreams…
One thing I have always had is a vivid imagination. I am an ‘Ideas person’…
Sometimes I think too much.
But I do value the ability to dream about and hope for a better, different future outcome. I suppose that is why I am in politics.
And I want to encourage everyone to live their dreams, as far as […] -

Afternoon Sun
Antother Saturday, another Action Day!
I do enjoy talking to people and today I did some more of that. I also stuffed leaflets through an inordinate number of doors… As did several of my colleagues.
I am happy to say Stroud Liberal Democrats are expanding. (And I’m not referring to the effects of the fantastic fun lunch […] -

Uplands Post Office saved!
Congratulations to Councillors Marjoram and Read for their work on helping to save Uplands Post Office.
I know they have both worked tirelessly for this so well done!
We voted unanimously on the Town Council to take this line of action. It does cost the taxpayer £75,000 over 3 years but we considered it a price worth […]
